Work has really been kicking my ass lately, and today has been the first day in 1.75 years of working with this company that I have truly felt overwhelmed. I guess you could say I was given a task that would take a team of people a month to satisfactorily complete, but I was only given 'til the end of the day. Needless to say,...

Since music seems to lately reflect life...here are some recent songs I've been listening to.

(Sorry for the second post in a single day, but the last was uninspired and uninspiring...)


This time when kindness falls like rain,
It washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind;
"These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days" she says,
And I'm not ready...

I got to watching a movie last night, finally having gone out and found it, as I've long liked it but have never replaced the VHS version with a new DVD one. As much as some people have been annoyed with the movie (hell, Chris Klein plays a dumb ex-jock in a rather perfect role for him), I really like the story, presentation, and the...

In the dust, of your wave,
A heartbeat is a part of the greater dream;
Like a rope, round your throat,
it won't let you breathe if you let go.
- Perpetuous Dreamer - Dust Wave

At work I am quickly becoming a wireless network expert! Yay! Ok, enough of that...

No news is good news for this boy...at least for now. However, I have...

"Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you got 'til it's gone; they paved paradise to put up a parking lot..."

The above chorus is from Big Yellow Taxi by (originally I think) Amy Grant with a recent cover by the Counting Crows. Lately, every morning a programmer that sits behind me in the office has some music on, and a...

Music from the 80's can be summed up with two artists...both of whom I could listen to all day, every day, and be happy. Tears for Fears and Genesis/Phil Collins make me so happy...moreso the latter. Throwing it All Away, Tonight, Tonight, Invisible Touch, A Groovy Kind of Love....*sigh*

Here's a question for those of my friends who view my journal: Which comes first, sex...

It is snowing again, for the second time in two days. This time, it is a beautiful, lazy, fluffy, dryish snow that is falling without wind, in an even sheet of slowly descending flakes...they almost tickle against the skin...

The only detail marring this snowfall at 30 degrees ambient temperature with the sun far set, is the already fallen snow is still a half slushy...

It snowed...a very wet, uninspiring snow that is about 3 inches high.

My cam is now on Yahoo...and once I get a decent placement for it, I'll be on SG a little bit too. The Logitech QuickCam 4000, while 80 bucks online, is well worth it.

song of the moment: Cafe Del Mar - Energy 52 (Nalin and Kane mix)

Yesterday's long post likely didn't get many readers, and hence even fewer comments...doh.

Gothika review:
While the movie title and preview want to convey something like a genre-atmospheric "The Cell" feeling, it really doesn't go balls-out. The movie is really just your typical murder suspense movie. Throw in a few twists like you normally have (nothing unpredictable at all), add in the ghosts element and...

The previous poster mystery solved and a second page of comments lead me to the conclusion that my journal needs an update....and yes, I will dispense with the usual Thanksgiving recap...

I am not feeling particularly clever and creative near noon today, so pardon the lack of an interesting post.

I need to see a movie tonight, and catch up on the movies that are...
